Pokémon: The Climb

"I understand!" Yang Yan sighed with emotion.

In fact, not only did he understand, but he finally understood why people like Mr. Nozomi, Team Rocket, Water Fleet and even Shan Hai Team were chasing the mythical beasts so crazily.

Maybe some of them do want to use the power of mythical beasts to change things as they said, but if you just purely pursue power, other Pokémon can do the same. At most, the number of Pokémon required will be a little more, but compared to chasing the mythical beasts It is much more down-to-earth, so this is most likely just a cover-up and deception by these forces.

They are most likely to use the power of mythical beasts to obtain something that is otherwise difficult to obtain.

Or to borrow the word again: foundation.

Yes, after Mr. Nozomi's explanation, the mythical beast is the Pokémon that Yang Yan believes can quickly close the gap between people and nobles.

"It's not without reason that the kings in ancient times were able to establish a country. I'm afraid part of the reason for the battles between kingdoms was to seize the mythical beasts controlled by the other party!" Yang Yan understood more and more why there were always shadows of mythical beasts behind the ancient kingdoms. . Because the mythical beast is the foundation.

The royal family that can establish a kingdom is nothing more than a noble that has developed to a certain level.

At this time, Yang Yan guessed: "In this way, those nobles who have been passed down from ancient times have most likely been recognized by a certain divine beast. Otherwise, how can we support them to survive the erosion of time based on their background? Keep it?"

Horrible, terrible!

For the first time, Yang Yan clearly understood what a difficult road he was walking on.

"If this is an analogy, the difficulty of the path I am taking now may not be any worse than that of the first kings who established the kingdom!" Yang Yan had mixed feelings in his heart.

Although it was difficult, Yang Yan had no choice but to go on.

He didn't want to give up because of trouble and difficulty, and chose to return to specialization. He didn't want to let down his Pokémon!

After finally raising their qualifications and promising to take them forward, how could they easily leave them behind and only take a few Pokémon forward?

He, Yang Yan, was by no means a person who would break a promise.

He can't do it!

……

Just when Yang Yan had not recovered from the heavy pressure, Mr. Xi suddenly asked: "By the way, after so many days, I forgot to ask one thing, why did Mr. You enter the volcano?"

The implication is that as a trainer who specializes in ghosts, the volcano is not an environment that "Yu" is good at dealing with, and he would not choose to risk it.

"It's just out of curiosity." Yang Yan came back to his senses and responded quickly: "The volcano in the secret realm is such a special place, and there is a great possibility of hiding good things. You can't give up just because it doesn't apply to the ghost system. Is it possible to get something good?"

"Before, I was just thinking about finding some fire-based materials so that I could sell them back for some money. Now that Mr. Kexi told me that this is where the mythical beast Sidorane lives, he also told me that the mythical beast can promote the growth of special materials. If I hadn't Interested, wouldn’t it be too sorry for my status as a bounty hunter? You must know that fire-based materials are one of the most popular things in the market.”

"A bounty hunter?" A disbelieving smile flashed across Mr. Xi's lips, and then he said, "Compared with this reason, I believe more that Mr. You has a fire Pokémon in his hands, so he will have a sense of fire materials." interest."

Yang Yan pretended to be shocked, "Fire element? Mr. Xi is joking, I specialize in the ghost element, and I can't compete with the fire element!"

"Mr. You, haven't you heard that there is a ghost + fire Pokémon in Hezhong, called Crystal Lamp?" Mr. Xi squinted his eyes, as if testing.

"So what? You said it was Hezhong, but I'm not from Hezhong, and I've never been there. Where did the Crystal Lamp Spirit come from? How could I prepare in advance for a Pokémon I don't have yet? resource?"

At this time, Yang Yan changed the topic again, "But after you said that, I became a little interested. When I have time in the future, I can go to Hezhong to see it!"

"Then I wish Mr. You all the best!"

"polite!"

The two of them laughed each other.

After a while, Mr. Xi said again: "Since Mr. You said that he is looking for fire-type materials to sell them for money, how about selling them to me? I am willing to buy them at a high price."

"You?" Yang Yan expressed doubts, "Mr. Xi, the Pokémon you are good at don't have the fire element, right?"

Mr. Xi pointed behind him, "Just because I can't use it doesn't mean that my men can't use it either. In fact, after coming to the volcano, I collected a lot of rare materials, and promised to give them extra rewards based on their respective contributions after I return. Among them, some of those who have fire elements clearly stated that they prefer to use fire elements as rewards, so..."

Yang Yan pretended to be hesitant, and after a while he spoke: "Although it is rude to say this, I'm sorry, if I get the fire element material, I can't sell it to you, Mr. Xi. As you said, you are doing it for your subordinates, But I also have friends who I think need these things more!”

"Is that so? I was too abrupt. I understand Mr. You's concern for his friends."

Mr. Xi smiled naturally, as if he didn't take Yang Yan's rejection to heart at all.

Of course, Yang Yan would not be deceived by such simple acting skills. How could he not understand that Mr. Xi would discuss this topic so readily, which is almost equivalent to the words "You don't want to leave alive" written clearly on his face. .

It was also because Yang Yan had guessed this a long time ago that he directly chose to refuse.

Of course, his own need for fire-based materials is also one of the reasons.

"You want the fire-based materials that I may have collected, but as you don't know, I'm also eyeing what you have in your hands..." Yang Yan's eyes flashed with a fierce light, secretly calculating the possibility of action.

Mr. Xi's words have come to this point. If he says that he doesn't have some rare materials that can rival Stone Ganoderma, Yang Yan would not believe it even to death.

Anyway, the battle with Mr. Xi was basically inevitable. Yang Yan naturally thought that he could get as much benefit from him as possible, and it was not in vain for him to take such a big risk.

……

A group of people with evil intentions moved forward slowly. After an unknown amount of time and after drinking several bottles of water, they finally crossed from one volcano to another.

After advancing about a hundred meters, everyone suddenly felt a vibration coming from all around.

There seemed to be vague sounds of fighting.

"You can hear it from such a distance. There will be no one except the Alliance," Mr. Xi quickly confirmed the situation, and then looked at everyone, "Follow my order, separate as a group, and search for information!"

"Remember, you should prioritize hiding your own existence. Now is not the time to start a war with the Alliance!"

"If you find Xiduo Lan'en, especially a cub, you must come back and report it immediately!"

"Yes!" everyone answered in unison.

Soon, more than 10 people dispersed into groups of three and entered different passages.

The only one left, except Mr. Xi, Ah Shan and Ah Shi, is Yang Yan.

"Mr. You, please join us for the time being!" Mr. Xi said.

"We are originally a team!" Yang Yan replied with a smile.
